Two new records of glacial stratigraphy obtained from borecores collected in southcentral
Saskatchewan are compared to previously published records from Wellsch Valley
and Swift Current Creek in southern Saskatchewan. ...

Iron and Al extracts as weathering indices in paleosols have been used in many localities to determine relative
age, transformation of total chemical element concentrations to secondary forms, translocation of ...

Neogene volcanism in the Fort Selkirk area began with eruptions in the Wolverine Creek basin ca. 4.3 Ma
and persisted to ca. 3.0 Ma filling the ancestral Yukon River valley with at least 40 m of lava flows.
Activity at ...

From high-resolution satellite imagery of barchan sand dunes, we provide geomorphological evidence of collisions that result in the ejection of a barchan from the wake of another barchan dune. Previous interpretations ...

We present a synthesis of paleomagnetic directional data collected from 873 lava flows at 17 different
locations under the collaborative Time Averaged geomagnetic Field Initiative (TAFI). The data range from
05
Ma in ...

On August 4, 1992 Western Diversification Canada (WD) celebrated its 5th birthday. This anniversary provides an excellent opportunity to examine WD's mandate and programs and to assess the allocation of funding under its ...

For more than four decades remote sensing images have been used to document and understand the evolution of aeolian sand dunes. Early studies focused on mapping and classifying dunes. Recent advances in sensor technology ...

The concept of situation, or the relative location of a place, includes two subsidiary components: intermediacy and centrality. Urban boosterism, the promotion of growth in a local centre in competition with other places ...

To explain trends in inequality in Mexico, three theoretical approaches to income inequality are outlined: Kuznets' inverted "U", Mexican crisis theory, and the informal-formal duality. Empirical data are used to construct ...

The stockyard was the nucleus of the livestock and meat processing agroindustry, one of the key propulsive forces in the rapid growth of western Canada at the turn
of the century. In metropolitan centres such as Calgary ...

The Japanese economic miracle has inspired considerable interest in the organization of the Japanese industrial system. One of the unique aspects of industrial capitalism in Japan is the vast array of contractual linkages ...

Blowing dust from agricultural fields has serious health and economic effects, which can be mitigated by soil conservation techniques. However, it is difficult to isolate improved land management in downstream records of ...

The transport of sand in saltation is driven by the persistently unsteady stresses
exerted by turbulent winds. Based on coupled high-frequency observations of wind
velocity and sand flux on a desert dune during intermittent ...
